Day 672 (Tidbits)

The content over on THE 800 DAYS blog for Day 762 is from another good friend of Blake's but this time, it is a mutual friend, KIMBERLYSLYRICS.

Many of the artists/authors Blake decides to give a feature spot to are people he knows and/or corresponds with over a long-term but this time, the feature artist/author is also someone that I also know, correspond with and have a long-distance relationship with - a peer-Canadian!

An interesting article by kimberlyslyrics which doesn't exactly make Canada look so good but no matter, these blogs are about truths, right? The article is about Canadian serial killers (ouch), entitled, "Canada's  10 Worst In Serial Killers."

Strangely enough, I just watched the movie "Karla," online about two weeks ago, so the details on Paul Bernardo with Karla Homolka (a killer duo), are pretty fresh in my mind. I know the movie portrayed a certain viewpoint so I ended up delving into quite a lot of text about Bernardo and Homolka online after viewing the movie... needless to say, I am not rushing to look up details now, after reading Kimberly's article over at The 800 Days blog!

(usually I am in a frenzy of open browser windows while reading each respective post on Blake's blog, fact-checking or supplementing my understanding of Blake's articles as I go)

Luckily, for readers, Kimberly has done an awesome job of arranging and presenting certain pertinent details of each serial killer and their deeds without going into enough detail to traumatize the reader (which is what I usually do to myself when I start to dig for information lol). Blake has done an awesome presentation of Kimberly's article onto his blogspot, adding some fitting graphics so that this Day 762 blog post has just enough information and graphics to please a reader without scaring him/her off!

I'll get out of the way now so people can go check out The 800 Days blog...

The Day 762 post over on The 800 Days blog is on the topic of 10 worst serial killers from the country of Canada (Oh Canada, Oh Dear!)... and is associated with Thursday February 17 2011.

Follower Reader Appreciation

Almost all of my posts on this blog to date have been attempts to keep up with The Blue Magnetic Storm 's many articles and posts at THE 800 DAYS blog. Blake's 13 Moon Astrological Identity/Association is Blue Magnetic Storm, in case you're wondering.

I just wanted to take some time to post a "Reader Appreciation" article because I know that some friends are reading, even if they haven't been posting comments directly at this blog here. I've gotten comments at my Facebook page that let me know that people are reading.

In return, I'd like to tell people about a few articles I think are related to thinking critically, are about tough topics, or about sharing the experience of being human - such as...

•  Lorlie6 's Article: Suicidal Soldiers

What is great about Lorlie6's article is that she puts the HUMAN back into the soldier experience topic she's writing on. At least that seems what is attempted. I don't know that anyone can ever make a really healthy "human experience" out of being any kind of soldier, but Lorlie's viewpoint is that soldiers need to be treated humanely. She talks about a certain humiliation tactic that has been used on US soldiers when they are not mentally or emotionally coping with their job as a soldier very well. This "tough love" tactic is to put a highly visible vest on soldiers considered "unstable" and SUICIDAL, bringing further attention to their delicate state of mind. Anyway, visit the article to see what sound arguments Lorlie6 gives AGAINST this CRUEL treatment of soldiers!

• kimberlyslyrics' very personal offering: He Was My First, I Was His Last

I won't spend much time at all "reviewing" kimberlyslyrics' personal offering because, honestly, I can't do so without becoming overly emotional. Get the kleenex out and fall into the human experience of crying over a very personal story about young love, young misfortune and the difficulty of healing in response to the death of a soulmate... (R.I.P. Darren). This is such a delicate topic, I feel I should keep the details where they belong... at kimberlyslyrics own page, in her own words... I merely suggest that you do pay attention to this one special article if you really want to come into touch with feelings and humanity today.

• dreamreachout's beautiful photos and article: Long Oiled Hair

dreamreachout is from India and when I browsed dreamreachout's hubs at a certain website, I was struck with the beautiful pictures that accompany a particular article about "long oiled hair." Since the oiling of hair in my area of the world isn't a common practice, I felt compelled to actually ask a hairdresser about this. I actually have very long hair - a giant mohawk lol. And now, for the past 5 months, I have a hairdresser who keeps my mohawk in great shape and who also pretty much insists on oiling/conditioning my hair...so I thank dreamreachout for some information and wonderful, beautiful photos - and also, a peek into how a different culture than my own practice certain grooming techniques.

• Pacal Votan (2012 info blog), a new online acquaintance whose blogs/sites are just awesome! ie: Project MMXII (2012).

Here's something that will freak a few of you right out... most of Pacal Votan's articles are only accessible with a bit of creative thinking and action... I loved the looks of Pacal Votan's sites/blogs so much I said, "To heck with this...I don't care WHAT language these are in...I'm going to get reading them!" No...no, I didn't start learning a different language - I boot on over to translators online in order to figure out what Pacal Votan is posting. TRUST ME - it is WORTH every additional translator page I have to open and wait to load....awesome viewpoints, information and links to many philosophical, scientific and spiritual wonders are available from Pacal Votan's blogs/sites.

To summarize... thanks in particular to Lorlie6, kimberlyslyrics, dreamreachout and Pacal Votan for just being online and for sharing the written words, pictures and human experiences with people online...and thanks to any who are reading!

Stay Well!

IAOTIO!
